Putti 1710 - 1772

"Putti" is a pen and ink drawing by Petrus Johannes van Reysschoot, created between 1710 and 1772. This artwork depicts two cherubs, or "putti," in mid-flight. The artist's masterful use of hatching and shading conveys the movement and volume of the figures, highlighting their playful nature. This drawing, likely a preparatory study for a larger work, demonstrates van Reysschoot's skill in capturing the essence of Baroque artistry.
